Some wumps were similar to Mug and some of the other wumps were not similar to Mug. Mug's shape was made out of small lines when other wumps were made out of big lines. Mug had a different shape adn a different apperance then some of the other wumps.
1. How did you decide which characters were similar to Mug Wump?
I looked at the basic shape of the wumps and looked at how close they resemble Mug and I looked at how big and how small they are.
2. What types of rules produced figures simlar to Mug Wump? What types of rules did not? Explain your answears.
The rule for producing a figure similar to Mug would be smaller lines because Mug is small so using big lines would make a figure not similar to Mug. Big lines would not work for Mug becuase Mug's design is based on small lines.
3. If two figures are similar, describe the relationships between their
a. general shape
b. angle measures
c. side lengths
a. Their shapes look the same in physical description.
b. The angle measures are double but have the same physical lines.
c. The side lengths look physically the same but the measuremnets are different.
